Mr. C. L. .Tordan 0 Mr. Jordan came to Streator in 1933 from Waukegan, Illinois, where he was an assistant superintendent of the secondary schools. He received his Bachelor of Science degree from the University of Illinois in engineer- ing and industrial courses. He earned a Master of Arts degree at the University of Chicago, in education and school administration. 0 Mr. Jordan was principal of Streator High School for a period of three yearsg during these years he did much for the general advancement and good of the school. He took many steps in raising the standards of scholarship and qualifications of leadership of the student body. He served the needs of the majority and arranged the curriculum to offer opportu- nities to every individual. Mr. Jordan, in the fall of 1935, resigned to take another position as principal of the du Pont Manual Training High School in Louisville, Kentucky. 0 The vacancy created by this resignation was very capably filled by Lowell Dale, who was acting principal until Mr. H. K. Whittier was appointed to the position. Mr. Dale has been head coach of Streator High School for seventeen years. He has won much popularity among the students and townspeople. Thus he was well qualified to accept the leader- ship of the school. Mr. Dale worked earnestly and diligently and is to be priaised upon the manner in which he so eiiiciently assumed this respon- si iity. Mr. Lowell Dale 10
